Kang, Ok Sun. “Reading Female Characters in the Religious Poetry of Felicia Hemans.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 39.4 (2013): 1-20. Generally the earlier poems of Felicia Hemans can be seen to justify the existing social order, insistently celebrating the gleeful home and representing women as sustaining the private realm. However, her subtext surprisingly reveals that Hemans’s heroines suffer from the sense of loss and absence of love in the domestic sphere of the nineteenth century. The later religious poems of Hemans are striking for their support of spiritual diversity, spiritual themes, and even new concepts of women’s status. Especially in the “Sonnet: Female Characters of Scripture” published in 1834, Hemans finds a platform for presenting religion as a source of empowerment for women. Throughout these sonnets, Hemans claims the power of biblical women for herself, her writing, and the positions of women. (Dongseo University)
